Eoin personal portfolio: commodity position increased May 19th 2023

Eoin Treacy's view

One of the questions subscribers ask most often is how to find details of my open trades. To make it easier I will simply repost the latest summary on a daily basis until there is a change.

Silvergate’s listing has been moved to the OTC market and the January 2025 $5 call which were purchased for $13.70 are virtually worthless. I see no value in continuing to report this position and will look for other ways to play a recovery in bitcoin and the crypto sector when the time is right.

I increased by silver long today paying $24.06 for another unit. That brings my average purchase price to $24.50. The first position purchased on April 5th at $24.94. My gold position was opened the same at in a June contract at $2037.1.

I re-opened my trading short in the Nasdaq-100 on March 22nd selling the June contract at 12841 including spread-bet dealing costs. 

I bought an investment position in the iShares 20+ year Treasury ETF (TLT) today at $108.525 on January 18th.

I bought equal-sized investment positions in the Global X Copper Miners and Uranium ETFs for $38.23 and $21.08 respectively on January 6th. I imposed stops on these positions on January 18th.

I bought an investment position in the DoubleLine Income Solutions Fund on November 10th. It was trading at a discount of 1.29%, is leveraged 30.48% and invests in high yield and mortgage bonds. The fund is currently yielding 11.5% and makes distributions monthly. I paid $11.485 including dealing costs.

I also initiated an investment long in the Global X Silver Miners ETF paying $27.57 on November 10th.

I also increased my investment long in the VanEck Vectors Gold Miners ETF on the 4th paying $24.74 for another equal-sized position. My original position in the VanEck Vectors Gold Miners ETF was purchased on March 25th, 2020, at $20.12. I bought another unit at $35.79 on December 1st, 2020.
